The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 267
Seeing Qing Shu, Mr. Lu asked, "What's the matter?"

Qing Shu said respectfully, "Sir, tomorrow Qing Shu will take his mother to Ningyun Temple to offer incense. The time is too tight, so Qing Shu decided to stay in Kangde Town for one night and come back the next day. Qing Shu is not here At that time, Qiao Jiang and Qingyang will bother Mr.

Mr. Lu chuckled, "Sir, you know, you can rest assured!"

Qing Shu came out of the school and met the butler again, "Are the arrangements done?"

The butler replied solemnly, "It's all arranged, don't worry, miss."

Qing Shu said again, "You don't have to go with me tomorrow, the mansion cannot live without you."

"Miss, tomorrow's matter is no small matter, this old servant must go." The housekeeper insisted.

Qing Shu made up her mind not to bring the housekeeper, "The housekeeper is too worried, tomorrow's matter is a trivial matter. Besides, with Mrs. Xianfu and Mrs. Baifu as companions, nothing will happen."

"Miss, listen to the old slave's advice, let the old slave go! Miss is right-minded and smart enough, but after all, she is young, and she still lacks some things in dealing with people, and she is not smooth enough in doing things, and she is easy to be impulsive. With the old slave here, if you appear Any mistakes, the old slave can also help the lady with ideas and run errands. The old slave has already handed over the chores in the house to Ding Jiabao, and he can handle them without any problem." Gu Qiang was 1 worried.Why was he worried, because Qing Shu didn't tell him what happened, but just confessed that he had made some arrangements in advance, as if to deal with someone.

Qing Shu stopped talking.She admits that she is sometimes too impulsive, and she also admits that she is really not very smart and not smooth enough in dealing with people. Bringing a housekeeper can indeed make up for her shortcomings.However, if you bring the butler with you, the butler will definitely guess the scandal that Gu Yeshi almost committed through clues.The less people know about this matter, the better, because it is not a glorious thing in itself.

After much consideration, Qing Shu finally nodded at the time of lighting the lamp, and the housekeeper followed her on this trip.This is also out of safety considerations.In any case, the housekeeper is someone who has seen the world, and has experienced many storms. If there is any mistake in her arrangement, the housekeeper will definitely be there to help her.

At dawn, when it was almost Mao, the gate of the town opened, and three carriages surrounded by servants left Kangxi Town.

The carriage in the front was the carriage of Mrs. Bai, the wife of the county assistant. She brought two personal maids, a mother-in-law, a rough envoy maid, six servants and two yamen servants.

The carriage walking in the middle is the carriage of Mrs. Bai Qingfeng's wife. She is accompanied by two maids, a woman, and four servants.

The last one was Gufu's carriage, in addition to Gu Ye and Qing Shu, Guan Pozi, Xiaoyu, and Xiaojuan were sitting in the carriage.Followed outside the car were six servants led by Gu Qiang.

They set off at Maoshi and did not arrive at Ningyun Temple in Kangde Town until Sishi.Except for winter, Ningyun Temple will hold a Dharma meeting on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year.Today is the first day of the new year, so there are extraordinarily many pilgrims in the monastery.

The carriages of Sanfu stopped at the place designated by the monastery.Everyone got out of the carriage, Mrs. Xian Fu, Mrs. Bai and Gu Ye Shi walked in front, Qing Shu followed behind Gu Ye Shi with a light veil on her face, and the maids followed behind their respective masters.

The steward of the county auxiliary mansion, the steward of the Bai mansion and the butler Gu led the way and took them all the way to the place where the Fa was taught.I saw a monk preaching the Dharma sitting on the high platform, and the people listening to the Dharma sat together.Although the Fa lecture was coming to an end, but the two Mrs. Bai and Gu Ye wanted to sit down and listen to the Fa, so the maids quickly brought futons from the little novice and waited for their wives to sit down and listen to the Fa.

In this way, after listening for only a quarter of an hour, the lecture ended, the monk chanted the Buddha's name and went back to rest, while the people listening to the Dharma got up and dispersed.Then, Qing Shu followed the three wives, first went to the Daxiong Hall to worship Buddha, then went to the Bodhisattva Hall, and then walked through several side halls.Seeing that the appointed quarter of noon was approaching, Gu Ye was clearly inattentive and was always distracted.

Seeing Mrs. Bai, she held Gu Ye's hand affectionately, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Gu Ye replied in a trance, "No, I'm fine."

The county assistant's wife also looked over with concern, "Are you tired? There are rooms in the temple for pilgrims to rest, so I just ask the masters for one."

Gu Ye's compose himself, forced a smile, "It's okay, remembering that the old man left for a while, disturbing the two wives' interest in worshiping Buddha, I'm really sorry."

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Xianfu and Mrs. Bai stopped persuading her.

At this time, Qingshu asked the little monk standing in front of the hall in a moderate voice, "Dare to ask little master, is there any place in your temple that is suitable for enjoying the flowers and scenery, and sitting down for a while?"

The little novice immediately told her that there was a plum grove behind the temple, where the scenery was pleasant, and there were pavilions and stone tables and chairs for people to sit and rest. .

After hearing this, Gu Yeshi tightly clenched the handkerchief in his hand.

Qing Shu thanked the little novice, looked back at Mrs. Gu Ye, Mrs. Xianfu and Mrs. Bai, "We still have to wait a while for the fast meal, why not go to the plum grove to sit down and have a rest."

Mrs. Gu Ye did not speak, but Mrs. Xian Fu and Mrs. Bai took a look at Mrs. Gu Ye's face, smiled and said that Miss Gu was thoughtful, and walked together towards the plum tree forest behind the temple.Gu Ye's face was full of worries, which made her complexion even worse.She didn't hear Mrs. County Assistant and Mrs. Bai talking to her, so she just walked silently.Mrs. Xianfu and Mrs. Bai didn't know why, so they also quieted down, neither of them said anything, just walked towards their destination.

When he arrived at the place, Qingshu took a look at it and thought that this place is really a pleasant place.Although the name is Plum Forest, in fact, there are all kinds of flowers and plants growing here. Naturally, there is also a plum tree.There are several stone piers on the side, but several young women are sitting there smiling and whispering.

They had to go inside.There are two gazebos in the plum grove, the first gazebo is just a short walk in, and coincidentally, several wives and maidservants are already sitting there.So, they continued to walk in, preparing to go to the pavilion in the depths.When the gazebo was in sight, suddenly, a woman's cry could be heard faintly from the depths of the flowers on the left.

Qing Shu lowered her eyes and quietly followed Gu Yeshi.

Everyone paused, and Qing Shu also stopped.The county assistant's wife frowned, "Why are there women crying here? Go and have a look."

The mother-in-law who followed Mrs. Xianfu responded, and searched for the past together with the rough envoy's maid.Not long after, a faint cry came from the depths of the flowers, and then everything returned to calm.The mother-in-law and the rough envoy's servant girl were silent, and the crying was also gone.

The county assistant's wife was displeased, "You useless slave." Then she nodded to a maid beside her, "Xiao Zhu, go and have a look."

The maid named Xiao Zhu agreed and was about to leave.
